About Us

The Interagency Working Group on Youth Programs (IWGYP) was formed in 2008 to enhance collaboration among 18 federal departments and agencies. The IWGYP promotes the goal of positive, healthy outcomes for youth by maintaining two websites – youth.gov and engage.youth.gov – that provide information, strategies, tools, and resources for youth, families, schools, youth-serving organizations, and community partnerships related to a variety of cross-cutting topics that affect youth.
